Yolanda Ceballos works with a document that intersects between architecture, science, art, philosophy and occultism. It reflects on the cyclical and repetitive nature of existence and the exploration of the unconscious mind.

This document takes form as drawing sculpture and installation . She works with symbolism and materials that transform over time such as concrete, steel, water, memory and her own body. Her latest installations also involve elements such as light, sound and scent. During her processes she finds connections and meanings that arise from her different personalities and readings of her own work. These connections are later on used as signs of how her future time and space should look like. Her nomadic nature allows her to bring references from her present and the displacements in time and space allow her to further understand the subjectivity of memory.
